GREAT DISCOVERIES.
sample of Regulation Dialogue Between
a Druggist and His Victim.

a Druggist and His Victim.
Nearly every druggist has discovered
some compound that will cure every
disease. This discovery, stopping at
respectable advertisement of its merits,
is well enough, but the inventive drug
gist stops not at advertising, in fact
rarely goes that far, but adopts a more
importunate method of selling his COM
pounds A man who has read much of
the merits of DR.. Bullrigg's Balm, and
who believes it will cure him, enters a
drug store and asks:
"Have you any of Bullrigg's Balm?n
Eyes, sir, we have it. Suffering witt
a cough?"
"Yes."
"Well, we've got plenty of the Balm,
but we also have something much bet
ter. Now here's something (taking

POISON IN WALL PAPER.
The Quantity OF Arsenic Contained in DIFF
ferent Grades of Paper.

The Quantity OF Arsenic Contained in DIFF
ferent Grades of Paper.
Prof. II. Carmichael presented some
important facts to the American Assoc
iation in his paper on 1.-The Quantity of
Arsenic contained in WALLPAPER"
Scientifically speaking, ne said, probab-
ly no paper in the market is strictly
free from arsenic, for faint indications
of it may always be discovered when
specially delicate tests are applied. For
the present purpose paper containing
less than one fiftieth of u grain of white
arsenic to the yard are said to be free.
Thirty samples of paper, which were
regarded as average ones, yielded on
analysis an average of % grains to the
square yard. 1t was impossible to CLASH
fy the papers so that their prevailing
colors would bear any simple relations
to the amount of arsenic discovered.
A paper with green ground,
in which arsenic might have been
suspected was the only one in
the lot entirely free therefrom, while a
paper nearly white contained quarter
of grain. Papers warranted strictly
free from arsenic" by the manufacturers
also contained notable quantities. In
general, arsenic is more abundant in
the figure than the ground, and in
brilliant than in the light, nonotoned
papers just now in fashion. Carmine
red is particularly distinguished by the
amount of arsenic it usually yields.
This is to be attributed to the arsenic
employed in the manufacture of ana
line red, the common red coloring mat
ter of paper, and from which, in its
manufacture, the analine fragment is
imperfectly freed. This same red dye,
with its arsenical impurity, is unfortu-
nately largely employed, on account of
its resemblance to the more costly
cochineal, in coloring worsted and
wooden underwear. 1t may be easily
distinguished from the latter by the
redness with which it imparts its color
to wash water or the skin with which it
comes in contact. Unfortunately, there
is no guide in the selection of papers
free from arsenic except chemical
analysis, and no security to the pur-
chaser unless by prohibitory law duly
enforced.-Popwlar Science Monthly.

Fover said: ''You won't find any bomb,
in Fielden's pockets, for he is man wnf
never even carried q revolver"
A moment later he remarked: They
will cut off your boards at Joliet, won't
they?"
IT guess So" said Schwab.
THAT is the CUSTOM" replied FieldenY
'No exception" put in deputy sheriff
Gleason.
Fielden called bailiff Pearce aud asked
him 10 see that his clothing and papers
were sent to his wife. He was told that
his wishes would be followed. Schwab
made the same request. The men made
their way awkwardly down the steps into
the Jail court, their walking being very
much impeded by the leg irons They
took the back seats of the hack and the
deputies clambered in after them and they
were driven TO the station.
Schwab aud Fielden left Chicago for
Joliet at 1:O2 this afternoon on the Chicago
and Alton railroad train, which pulled out
of the depot two minutes behind schedule
time. A few acquaintance of Fielden
were at the station and few idlers gath
cred around the car in which the two con-
victs were placed, but that was all.
Out of the windows of the train, which
was bearing Fielden and Schwab to the
penitentiary at Joliet, very few we're seen
at the depOts along the route, and the
deputies who had the prisoners in charge
experienced 10 difficulties whatever dur
ing the trip. The train reached the depot
in Joliet S-as 2:3O o'clock, and the
convicted Anarchists were marched up the
graveled route TO the penitentiary. Upon
arrival at the penitentiary they were es-
corted to an inner room and stripped OF
their clothing and treated to bath, after
which they were shaved and placed in cells.
No work has as yet been assigned to them,
but owing to their feeble condition it is
said they will be given easy work for a

Finances in Very bad ShaPs-Must An

PITrsBURG, November PA special
dispatch to the CbroHicls- Telegraph from
Columbus, Ohio, says:
For several weeks there has been con-
siderable talk about Ohio's financial con-
dition.
Both political parties made campaign
matter out of it before election. The Demo
Gratis charged that the State was on the
verge Of bankruptcy, while the RePub-
licans claimed that the treasury was full
of money.
II is true there isa balance of SlO2, 3O5.-
o. to the credit OF the sinking fund, and
S54.62O 5G to the common school fund; but
at the opening Of business this morning
only $685. appears to the credit Of the
General Revenue fund. As this is the
only fund from which money can be
drawn to pay the cursebt expenses Of the
State, il will be seen that OhiO's finances
are getting in bad shape.
Since Yesterday Auditor KieSswetter re-
fused to issue warrants a. there was abso-
lutsly no money in the treasury. At pres
ent there is nearly 500, 900 in outstanding
bills which can only De paid out of the
General Revenue fund, and within the next
few days the State Institutions must have
from Sl50.OOO to $4,000 With $3.50
in the treeury to-day the prospects are
not encouraging for those holding claims
against the State.
There is but one way in which &c raise
money now, and that is for the Auditor of
State to anticipate the December tax, but
as that tax is not yet due it is question
whether the county auditors will honor the
drafts on them. Unless the Auditor does
anticipate this tax and it Is paid, the State
VIII be praetirally bankrupt.
